ARCHITECTURE AND THE COVER

Dears!
I ask you permission to introduce to you some ideas and thoughts that comes through my mind.
I’m not talking as an architect, but as someone that’s trying observe some details, which some years ago, I hadn’t perceived.
In the end of 2009, I suffered an accident.
I've had a traumatic brain injury, so I had to rehabilitate myself in the ordinary world.
For more sad that it can seem, I have say that it was an unique experience in my life.
I passed to look at details in my life, things that are there all the time, but sleepy.
These days, for example, I started to think about an house, a simply home.
When I was in the architecture school, I’ve been teached, about walls, structures, roofs and other things usual in an architect life.
Well, thinking more early, there in the paleolithic age, when a man entered into a cavern, and realized that he could live there, he already was making architecture.
Of course, with the time, he was discovering the possibility of constructing tool, how to use the fire in his favour.
And that was increasing his form of face the world, and so comes constructions, houses, palaces, graves,…, what’s wrong in that?
I read sometime, in a book called “The history of the city”, by Leonardo Benevolo, that  the man in a moment of his life, started feel the will  of guarding his deads, in order that he could return to visit them, that means  that the alive’s city, started with the dead’s city.
But what is the diference between the the space, the group fo atoms existent in the  previous caverns, and the moderns houses?
Maybe the cover,.., both the intern and the extern.
These covers were use in many moments, …, by kings, kingdoms, churchs, but the essence keeps the same.
I’m not forsaking the idea of the forms in the architecture,…,  I use the corver like a form of making my ideas escape from my mind.
But the interior is something intersect, like veins, that all the moment, they cross themselves.

Besides, nowadays there are so many dimensions to look, beside that old and spacial that we already know.
If we look the cords theory, we can think about  other dimensions like mass, time,..,the charge…
Sorry my voyage and if I seem vain , but I hope that I can explain my understanding about architecture,
And maybe make someone think like me,…, and with me.
Grateful!
